I was thinking of this other one: "The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them".
If the extra details of the prophecy that you are showing are in question then I can also include the straw and the dust and the serpent to further clarify what i am saying. It already happened the moment it was spoken.
The lion is with the cattle and with the straw. The dust is in a different place.
Cattle - Goat - Sheep
Lion - Leopard - Wolf
Straw - Dust - Stubble
Spear - Sword - Bow
To help understand straw and dust you can see in the word list the spear is as straw, and the sword is as dust.
The sword is as dust, and stubble is as bow:
Who raised up the righteous man from the east, called him to his foot, gave the nations before him, and made him rule over kings? he gave them as the dust to his sword, and as driven stubble to his bow. Isaiah 41:2
As stubble is also as wine
For while they be folden together as thorns, and while they are drunken as drunkards, they shall be devoured as stubble fully dry. Nahum 1:10
This is what the sword is:
The sword(dust) is "the sword of Eden" mentioned in Genesis. And the serpent is in Eden, that is why it eats dust. Because that is where it is.
Eden is a wilderness, but it is also dust.
Desert - Wilderness - Mountain
So what about the bread and the wine, the low and the high?
Bread - Oil - Wine
Corn - Olive - Grape
I think I can understand this pain. Is it here: "If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple".
Jesus teaches both peace and war, love and hate. It is not contradiction. You just cant understand one without also understanding the other.
"Out of the mouth of the most High proceedeth not evil and good?" Lamentations.
Have to listen carefully.
Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. 1 John 3:4
Sin is the misunderstanding of the law. If the law is not being understood correctly then it is therefore being lawless.
I get your point from the beggining , but you don't understand what you are presenting is vague.
First , let's talk about dust.
Genesis 3:19
"By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground,since from it you were taken;for dust you are and to dust you will return.”
God draws the first prophetic relationship between ground and dust in Genesis 2:7 when he forms man from “the dust of the ground” and then strengthens this relationship in Genesis 3:19, “for dust you are and to dust you will return”. When we take into account the Biblical history of mankind as one people coming from Adam (āḏām), translatable as “ground” or “soil of the earth” (ăḏāmâ in Hebrew, אדמה), God paints an intriguing word picture. He uses the earthly elements, specifically dust, to express mankind as a vast whole across the ages. In Genesis 28:14, He broadens this relationship by likening Abraham’s promised descendants to the “dust of the earth” and the “sand of the seashore” (Genesis 22:17, 32:12, 41:49; 2 Chronicles 1:9).
It’s a no brainer that dust is from the ground, but the etymological choice here is intentional: Dust (as well as sand) is a vast collection of small, granular particles with no value or usefulness, whereas ground like soil, mud, and clay is clumpier, less discrete, and can be useful for planting crops and trees, making bricks and pottery, and so on. The functional difference between these kinds of earth is no secret, of course, and it carries over into prophetic etymology. Besides dust representing humanity across time, it also refers to futility, worthlessness, mortality, and death (Ecclesiastes 3:20, 12:7; Job 17:16, 21:26; Jeremiah 17:13; Daniel 12:2). For instance, when we see ancient pagan cultures like Nineveh repent, they do so in “dust” and sackcloth (Jonah 3:6), acknowledging that they will be reduced to dust, binding back the consequence of Genesis 3:19. We also see the Gentile prophet Job and his friends as well as kings, judges, prophets and commoners of Israel sit, sprinkle, roll, or cover themselves in dust (Joshua 7:6; 1 Samuel 4:12; 2 Samuel 15:32; Nehemiah 9:1; Job 2:12, 42:6).
“Therefore I despise myself and repent in dust and ashes.”
JOB 42:6
Covering dust over oneself is a public declaration that they are a dead man walking, so to speak, acknowledging their inability, mortality, shame, or worthlessness in the world as well as repenting and turning from their evil ways: sins, trespasses, iniquity, and all sorts of wrongdoing–the old self is dead, nothing but dust. Once the dust is washed off by water, a new man is restored out of the dust into a way of life, an outward expression of repentance reflecting an inward reality. This dust-to-dust understanding is both practical and prophetic (Job 34:15) and seems to also be why the apostles could use it as a sign of looming judgment (Luke 9:5, 10:11; Acts 13:51, 22:22-23; Revelation 18:19; Deuteronomy 28:24).
This adds further insight into the "Parable of the Wise and Foolish builders" when Jesus likens a person’s belief and behaviour to a man “who built his house on the sand”, He binds back the prophetic usage of sand or dust as mankind, meaning to build your life, belief, attitude, and behaviour on the “tradition of men [dust, sand]” is not only foolish but foundationless, so that during times of trouble or judgment, the house will fall. The house is not built to last because it is not built on the everlasting
If dust covers the meaningful spirit behind repentance, why repent in ashes, too?
Ashes :
To repent in ashes is a visual marker for a change of heart, as much as it about acknowledging God’s authority as Judge and what we deserve given our sin nature: destruction (cf. Daniel 9:3). But why would one repent in their destruction, then? Isn’t destruction something that happens to you? And isn’t repenting in dust the same thing, acknowledging our inevitable death, ‘for dust we are and to dust we will return’. It boils down to eschatological imagery.
To “repent in dust and ashes” means to fully humble yourself and surrender everything you are before God, to completely turn away from all evil-from beginning to end, from creation to destruction, from ancestors to descendants, from birth to death, from dust to ashes,I repent!
So repetence is the sword?
And about Isiah 66:25 , It shows us the complete restoration of peace on earth. No more sin, no more sorrow, no more futility, no more harming or destroying “on all my holy mountain.” This is what Easter inaugurated,the peaceable kingdom God intended when he decided to create the heavens and the earth.
".....he gave them as dust to his sword, and as driven stubble to his bow"
Weapons were not carnal, but spiritual, and mighty through God; his sword was the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; his bow and arrows were the Gospel, and the truths of it, in whose ministry Christ went forth conquering, and to conquer: and this being attended with the power of God, men could no more stand against them than dust and stubble before the wind.
Wine and bread i leave it for the end of discussion , may I?
Again you go to peace and war , and again i am saying to you.
"Blessed are the peacemakers"
John 14:27.
"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you."
and again we go to the Mathhew 7:15-20
Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.You will know them by their fruits.Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles?Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit.Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.Therefore by their fruits you will know them.
and
Lamentations 3:37-40
This verse tells us that apart from God, no one can determine whether something can be done. In our real life, we can experience that though we can make a plan for our everyday life, we cannot foresee what will happen in that day.
Lamentations 3:40
"Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the LORD."
(The key verb in the second part of the verse is "turn again," "return," the Hebrew verb shûb, "to (re)turn.")
